YU ching, peng

Personal statement Introduction I am Yu-Ching Peng, an Interior Design major at Chung- Yuan Christian University, the best Interior Design department in Taiwan, transforming from an unadapted student to a learning-addicted designer. Before enrolling in college, I showed my passion on drawing sketch from daily life persistently although having studied in none of professional courses.

Consequently, challenging as school subjects were at first, with keeping great passion and repeating practice, I, thriving on challenges, succeeded in soaring my academic performance to top 10%.

Academic Experience In college period, I am impressively influenced and well-educated by two professional teachers with strides.

First, under a famous Taiwanese architect, Xiu-Chuan, Yang’s Space-Exploring project, I tried to use straws, featuring transmittance and privacy at same time to create a living space displaying their intertwining impacts between materials and human behavior, ever since then, making me totally fascinated with trying all kinds of alternative materials to influence a user’s behavior.

Second, under the Introduction to Adaptive Reuse of Cultural Heritage lesson by advisor Professor, Mi, Lin, inspiring me to rethink and redesign the urban fringe space to create a better value for the developing community, via asking myself frequently the connection between human behavior and space to achieve its best benefits.

To strengthen my realization of how space influences human’s behavior, my graduation design will present what a usual daily sight death is in life fusing two kinds of contradictories to create endless possibilities. The specializedly designed memorial space enables people to flexibly arrange their worship in their urban community, and to appease the mournful through innovatively insightful activities and facilities. It also intrigued many of my advisor Professors’ intention to be my graduation project instructor, truly inspiring me a lot and motivating me to dare and desire a further study by obtaining a master’s degree abroad.

YU CHING, PENG

Motivation With a strong desire for inspiring personal potential to advance my ability of designing the space as well as often being told by the admiring professor having studied in the Edinburgh that what a liberal learning environment with abundant resources and facilities it is, especially, the courses I searched planning to teach technology application influencing our thoughts and living behavior really attract me to desire to use technical material in describing personal concept on space with critical and inspiring design thinking, trying out endless possibilities between space and human.

Based on the above, I deeply consider the Edinburgh College of Art a great learning sanctuary, where I could learn joyfully and satisfyingly with its atmosphere of innovation.

Future Plan I hope to become a professional designer in the future, whatever in the field of interior design or in any other related ones to fully prepare myself in my own professional field by cultural exchanging with different thoughts in interior design to broaden my horizon of my career.

My long-term objectives are that the unused space in my country, Taiwan, where many cases failed in designing space due to over-commercialization and homogeneity will be redesigned to experience a meaningful and touching state of mind.

To further advance this relative knowledge and thinking, I sincerely hope to join you on MAInterior Design for autumn 2019 entry and thank you for your consideration of my application.

I deeply and sincerely hope to join you in 2019 and thank you for your consideration of my application.
